Notes:These are OLS regressions on the sample of households that did not have access to sanitation facilities at baseline for the social capital sample from equations (1), (3)). All specifications include sub-district fixed effects. Standard errors clustered at the village level and are reported in parentheses. ∗∗∗indicates significance at 1% level, ∗∗ at 5% level, ∗ at 10% level. RA (LG) Treatment indicates villages assigned to implementation by a resource agency (local government). Village Social Capital BL is the baseline village social capital index constructed from the variables in Table A2. Column 5 drops the interactions with quintile of the baseline village social capital which are not statistically significant in column 4. Columns 3–5 include the usual set of controls – household control variables (household size, the household head's age and educational attainment, household composition, log of per capita household income, eligibility for low income support and dwelling characteristics) and village control variables (the village population, village land area, the percentage of the village which is Muslim, whether there is a paved road to the nearest city, average years of education of household heads, whether a river flows through the village, and the percentage of households in the village who open defecated at baseline).
